Our Founder, Rachal Lohr, L.Ac. is a Licensed and Board Certified Acupuncturist and Clinical Herbalist with over 17 years of clinical experience, specialized training in complex chronic inflammatory conditions, and over 75,000 patient treatments performed.
She founded the Firefly Acupuncture and Wellness Clinic to bring the missing link of healthcare to her hometown of Northern Virginia.
​
Rachal's primary focus has been treating Chronic Pain and
Complex Conditions - including Peripheral Neuropathy,
Fibromyalgia, Autoimmune Conditions, as well as Women’s
Health Issues - focusing on hormonal and fertility support,
perimenopause, and menopause.
These conditions have not been well understood within the conventional Western medical paradigm alone, and many are
often left with debilitating symptoms and no support. ​
